    Absolutely the best post ever.........


    The Feds and States want to eliminate rural land ownership.

    A hunter was caught eating a freshly killed Bald Eagle and was taken to court for sentencing.

    He was fined heavily, had his gun taken and hunting license as well.


    The Game Warden came up to him after the sentencing and asked him one question:

    "What does a Bald Eagle taste like?"

    The hunter said, "Kind of between a Condor and a Spotted Owl."

    That is awesome! It sounds as if Tennessee DFW may be run by the same type of geniuses that we have out here in CA.

    Fake news. This story has been roaming the net for a few years, only the state changes. Steve Niemela is a biologist studying Foothill Yellow Legged Frogs in OREGON. This never happened. In fact yellow legged frogs don't live within 1500 miles of Tennessee.

    Yep. Totally false story that's been tossed around for a while. Amazing how much false information shows up on the 'net, even on dinky fishing sites like this. As Barnum said, "a sucker is born every minute". Even looks like a few here fell for it and issued the appropriate political response!

    It is only satire when it is recognized as such. When it is swallowed hook, line, and sinker it is no longer satire and simply becomes yet another lie. According to some of the responses here, it was believed and reacted upon without hesitation.

    the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues. Definition from Oxford Dictionary. No mention of whether the reader recognizes the writing as such. After all, a green frog is still green even if the observer is blind.

    If the story were true, it would be hilarious. But it ain't. Total fiction.
    What's hilarious is the number of people here who believed it. Now, that's some funny chit!!!!
    BTW, the frog is only found in NorCal and S. ORE, and Steve works for ODFW.
    HOOK. LINE. SINKER!!!!!!!!

    You’re missing the whole point of the story. No one really cares if it’s true or not.
